- W1983464783 abstract "Abstract Characteristic scales associated with auroral precipitation are investigated on the basis of quasistatic magnetotail models, resistive MHD simulations of magnetotail dynamics, and a general relation between parallel electric fields and velocity shear. Since the inverted-V precipitation region of discrete auroras (on the dusk side) is associated with upward flowing, region 1, currents, we investigate the distribution of these currents first. The overall distribution of region 1 type field-aligned currents and their dynamic changes can be explained by characteristic scales in the magnetotail and their mapping to the ionosphere. The quiet time region 1 currents are associated with the decrease of tail flaring. Their overall extent in the north-south direction is closely related to the scale height of the cross-tail current. Dynamic region 1 currents are related to the velocity shear of earthward flow, which can be generated by a tail instability. In that case the peaks of the enhanced region 1 currents are found to map closer to midnight and to lower latitudes than the quiet region 1 currents, consistent with average observations [ Iijima and Potemra (1976a), J. geophys. Res. 81 , 2165]. On the basis of a general relation between parallel electric fields and ‘slippage’ in the plasma transport [ Hesse and Schindler (1988), J. geophys. Res. 93 , 5559; Schindler et al. (1991), Astrophys. J. 380 , 293], we make estimates of the spatial extent of nonideal regions, where parallel electric fields may exist. For a plausible model of substorm reconfiguration, we find a latitudinal extent of about 7 km for a time scale of 1 min and a integrated parallel electric field of 5 kV. The length scale is proportional to the time scale. The sign of this parallel electric field is consistent with downward acceleration of electrons on the dusk side. The spatial extent of the parallel electric field region is independent of the microscopic generation mechanism if the time scale and the characteristic parallel potential difference (i.e. the integrated parallel electric field) are independent of this mechanism." @default.
